Manchester United Hit by Defensive Crisis Ahead of Crucial Fixtures
Manchester United aspirations for Champions League qualification and FA Cup success have been severely impacted by a defensive crisis. Both Lisandro Martínez and Victor Lindelof have been sidelined for a minimum of one month due to muscle injuries.
This setback leaves manager Erik ten Hag with limited defensive options as the team faces a crucial period in the season. Martinez absence is particularly significant, considering his recent return from injury and his importance in the defensive setup.
With key players like Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia also unavailable, United defensive depth is further depleted. The club faces challenges in fielding a strong defensive lineup for upcoming fixtures, including the FA Cup semi-final against Coventry and a crucial league clash against Chelsea.
